I grab a new CHIRP (next-20231003), find that the recommended model is the Radioddity UV-5RX3, and have at it. Turns out I can program up the channels and edit a few of the settings page entries, but I:<br>

<br>
This is because some of the latest radios have some issues when<br>
reading/writing to the Aux memory area that the current CHIRP-next is<br>
trying to avoid. Using the legacy CHIRP (or one of the earlier<br>
CHIRP-next) version on one of these radios will allow the radio to<br>
blank out or scramble it Aux memory area.<br>
<br>
I have been developing a work-around for the problem. Two weeks ago I<br>
attached what was my proposed fix to issue #10505 and have been<br>
waiting for feedback from testors. So far there has been none. In the<br>
meantime I have been doing my own testing which uncovered additional<br>
behavior that needed to be addressed. This latest version was just<br>
attached a few minutes ago.<br>
